Everyone looking absolutely frozen in their post recently interviews

These Canadian rain jackets with the cutout for the back pocket seem like a really good idea in this weather

Furrer's death overshadows everything but that was an exciting race. Somehow doubt tomorrow will be as competitive.

the dutch team in particular did not seem to have been handed warm dry coats in the minutes after finishing. i found it hard to watch Vos and especially Vollering shivering

Alaphillipe has crashed out, with a dislocated shoulder.

Dropped his fork though, will probably get disqualified for littering.

Slovenia burning through riders trying to catch Castrillo but I'm pretty sure Pog doesn't really need teammates

Stevie Williams in the group getting up the road, tasty

Is Pog on a v4rs or something else?

Infuriating to watch
